The Distance from A to Z by Natalie Blitt
Publication: January 12, 2016
By: Harper-Collins
This full-length novel
by debut author Natalie Blitt is a pitch-perfect blend of Stephanie
Perkins and Miranda Kenneally that proves the age-old adage: opposites
attract.
Seventeen-year old Abby has only one goal for her summer: to make sure she is fluent in French—well, that, and to get as far away from baseball and her Cubs-obsessed family as possible. A summer of culture and language, with no sports in sight.
That turns out to be impossible, though, because her French partner is the exact kind of boy she was hoping to avoid. Eight weeks. 120 hours of class. 80 hours of conversation practice with someone who seems to exclusively wear baseball caps and jerseys.
But Zeke in French is a different person than Zeke in English. And Abby can’t help but fall for him, hard. As Abby begins to suspect that Zeke is hiding something, she has to decide if bridging the gap between the distance between who she is and who he is, is worth the risk.

We want more A to Z!
Natalie Blitt's debut book, The Distance from A to Z, has hit the shelves and the reviews are in. The consensus? Readers want more! They want more of the two main characters they fell in love with. Well fans you are in luck.
Natalie Blitt is going to give us all exactly what we want but we have to give her something in return. What is that something? A review on Amazon (you are welcome to review anywhere else as well, but for the number to count towards the goal it much be posted on Amazon).
Here's the extras options:
If The Distance from A to Z gets 30 reviews on Amazon Natalie will release a deleted scene on her website
If The Distance from A to Z gets 50 reviews on Amazon Natalie will write a short scene that takes place within six months of the last scene of A to Z and post it on her website.
If The Distance from A to Z gets 100 reviews on Amazon Natalie will write a real epilogue that... doesn't take place in the United States.
I don't know about you, but seems really doable to get more of this fantastic story.
